Description:
===============================================================================

The Sci-Fi Handgun Set is a set of four Poser props in PP2 format replicating 
four different futuristic handgun models. The models are designed to have the 
look and feel of handguns from a not too distant technology level so they will 
serve well in futuristic settings and in modern scenes as well. The first two
handgun models have a distinct military-issue look to them and the second two
feature a more elegant weapon design.

All of the detail is in the mesh and not implemented with bump or displacement
maps so the models will work well in any 3D environment as well as in Poser. 
The UV maps are layed out to easily facilitate customizing the look of the 
models. Each of the Sci-Fi Handgun models also have between 9 to 13 different 
material zones to make it easy to cutomize the models without having to change 
the texture map.

The Sci-Fi Handgun Set also comes with four hand poses to pose the hand/fingers 
to work with each of the four gun models. The hand poses are for M4 but will work
for V4 with some adjustments.

The Sci-Fi Handgun Set comes with the following four Sci-Fi Handgun models in
PP2 format:

SF-HG1
SF-HG2
SF-HG3
SF-HG4

===============================================================================
The Sci-Fi Handgun Set comes with high resolution textures that look great from 
a distance or at extreme close up renders. 

The Sci-Fi Handgun Set props have been tested to work in Poser V5 and higher. 
They should work in earlier versions of Poser and/or Daz Studio but they are not 
supported running in versions of Poser lower than Poser 5.
===============================================================================
Notes:

The handgun models will load  at a small distance in front of and centered on a 
default Poser figure. They are not smartpropped to the character's hand so you 
will have to either reposition the gun model or the character to fit the model
to your character's hand (right or left). The hand poses then shape the fingers
to best fit each of the gun models. These hand poses should get your character's
hand/fingers into a close position although you will probably have to adjust the
final hand pose to suit your scene's requirements. As I mentioned earlier, these
poses were made for M4 by default but they will probably work to some degree for
any Daz/Pose character with adjustment.

===============================================================================

The Sci-Fi Handgun props should already be appropriately scaled for a standard 
size Poser/Daz character. Some adjustments may be necessary to account for 
different computer environments and/or morphs.

If you have any difficulties with the installation or use of these props, 
please email me with a description of your problem and I will respond
promptly.
